喀斯特石灰土-灌丛系统主要养分含量分布特征研究---以贵阳花溪杨中石灰土-灌丛系统Ca、Mg、 K 、P为例

本论文通过对贵州贵阳花溪杨中喀斯特山区的植被调查与土壤样品分析, 研究土壤-植被中Ca、Mg、 K、P分布特征、变化规律及其影响因素，并在此基础上尝试Ca同位素的预处理研究，以期为喀斯特地区土壤-植被中Ca、Mg、 K、P（尤其是Ca）的生物地球化学循环研究奠定基础，同时为植被演替、物质循环研究和退耕还林还草的人工恢复提供植物自身的营养依据。本次研究取得如下认识： 1.受石灰岩母岩控制，土壤样品元素含量的特征为：CaO>MgO>K2O> P2O5。同一元素沿海拔变化有一定的相关性，并且相关性随元素的不同存在差异：随海拔高度的增加CaO含量有升高的趋势，而MgO 、K2O、Na2O含量都有所降低。表层土壤中K2O-Na2O含量正相关变化，CaO-K2O含量负相关变化。并且从土壤表层到底层在剖面-1中随深度增加，CaO、MgO、K2O含量升高，而P2O5的含量则有上升的趋势。土壤中元素的上述分布特征主要与石灰岩的风化成土作用过程中不同分化程度土壤Ca的淋失和来自高处的富钙雨水输入有关。 2.喀斯特生态环境富钙的这一特点对喀斯特灌丛植物的种类成分和营养元素含量有很大影响。地貌部位、海拔高度对植物Ca、Mg 、K、P含量也有不同程度的影响。植物Ca、Mg 、K、P含量由高到低依次为：Ca > K > Mg >P。苔藓与其它植物比较， Ca、Mg、 K、P的含量都小于其它三类较高等的植物，这一现象与其自身的生物学特性有关：苔藓植物组织结构简单，不具备发达的输导组织，不具备真正的根系，不利于从土壤等基质中吸收营养。在、灌草、灌木、藤本三类植物营养元素之间Ca –P含量具有负相关变化，Mg –P含量具有正相关变化；在所分析的植物种，P- K含量变化呈正相关，并且植物叶片Ca/K比值随着P含量的增加而显著地以指数形式减小。这是因为植物体内的K和P对于Ca来说起着平衡离子（counter ion）的作用。 3. 生境中基岩裸露和土体浅薄的特点，极大地制约了喀斯特灌丛的发育，喀斯特生境的富含钙的特点对喀斯特灌丛植物的种类成分和元素含量有很大的影响。但是杨中灌丛群落植物Ca、Mg、K、P含量和对应土壤CaO、MgO、K2O和P2O5含量相关性不明显。植物Ca、Mg、K、P元素虽主要来源于土壤，但因其含量受元素地球化学性质、植物种类、土壤元素对植物有效态的含量等因素的制约，而使植物元素含量和土壤元素的含量没有明显的相关性． 4.从Ca同位素的预处理研究来看，离子交换分离法对去除样品中的杂质效果较好。在以后测定过程中，有利于增强离子流稳定性和强度, 提高测量精度和准确度，与沉淀法相比较，此法适宜作为钙同位素样品的前处理方法。 关键词： 喀斯特 石灰土-灌丛系统 Ca、Mg、K、P含量分布 钙同位素 环境地球化学

贵州碳酸盐岩风化壳形成地球化学过程、对比及年代学研究Geochemical Processes, Comparison and Dating for the Weathering Crusts in Karst Regions of Guizhou Province

由于缺乏相应的沉积地层，贵州新生代地质、环境演化恢复一直是学术界的难点问题。夷平面研究的兴起，为陆地地壳抬升、地貌演变等反演提供了理论基础，而风化壳正是夷平面研究的重要替代对象，尤其是对各类沉积地层不发育的地区。因而，贵州高原各级台地上发育有较为广泛的红色风化壳自然地、就成了主要研究载体。然而一与其它岩类不同，碳酸盐岩风化成土作用过程研究并没有得到同等重视，其研究范围和程度均很不充分。显然，要想利用碳酸盐岩风化壳进行夷平面等地质、地貌意义研究，就必需详细了解贵州或中国南方碳酸盐岩风化成土的基本过程。也只有如此，才能明确各种对比指标的使用条件和范围，才能明确各种测年结果的具体意义，才能真正地通过贵州碳酸盐岩风化壳获取全省地质、环境演化信息。本论文通过对贵州省岩溶台地碳酸盐岩石灰土、红色风化壳剖面形成地球化学过程的剖析，开展石灰土与红色风化壳之间的关联和差异性综合对比、红色风化壳之间发育程度的比较，以及风化壳剖面尝试性的侧年等方面研究，取得了以下儿点认识：1、石灰土形成地球化学过程及对比通过矿物组成、粒度分布特征、地球化学方法判别，确定了本文所选石灰土剖面物质来源于下伏碳酸盐岩中的酸不溶物，是碳酸盐岩风化后酸不溶物原地残余堆积的结果。石灰土形成的地球化学过程都遵循碳酸盐岩风化成土之两阶段模式：母岩－酸不溶物，大量可溶性物质Ca、Mg、Mn、P、Na淋失，而Si、K·Fe、Al、Ti则相对富集。该过程的矿物组成变化表现为，伴随碳酸盐矿物（方解石、白云石等）的溶解、迁移，硅酸盐相矿物（长石、2:1型粘土矿物等）残余、累积。酸不溶物，土层或土层的演化，K、Si（长石、伊利石）不断淋失，而Al（伊利石、高岭石、三水铝石）、Fe（针铁矿、赤铁矿等）逐渐富集，体现出脱硅、富铝（铁）过程。我们强调碳酸盐岩风化成土分为两个阶段，但也认识到风化作用是综合的、复杂的：在碳酸盐矿物大量淋失过程中，同时也进行着酸不溶物的风化。石灰土分为原生和次生两种成因类型。原生石灰土的风化程度总体较低，剖面中还残留一定量的CaCO3，剖面从下到上矿物组成、地球化学各种指标具有逐渐演化的过渡特征。原生石灰上土层演化过程显示出正风化序列，从下到上风化程度逐渐增大、可溶性物质逐渐减少、稳定和相对稳定组分（Al、Fe．、REE）含量不断增大。另外，主量元素的质量迁移系数在剖面中的变化与风化程度呈明显的相关性。而次生石灰土不但具有很高的风化程度，而且剖面无过渡特征，显示可能是由遭受强烈风化作用的物质直接转变形成的。剖面中也含有一定量后期加入的碳酸盐，但与高CIA值特征不相匹配；SiO2、Al2O3、Fe2O3组分具有不同的变化特征，与）成化程度无明显关联；REE在剖面岩一上界面出现富集层。2、碳酸盐岩红色风化壳形成地球化学过程及其与石灰土的对比红色风化壳形成的地球化学过程也遵循碳酸盐岩风化成土之两阶段模式：母岩一酸不溶物，大量可溶性物质Ca、Mg、Mn、P、Na淋失，而Si、K、Fe、Al、Ti则相对富集。该过程的矿物组成变化表现为，伴随碳酸盐矿物（方解石、白云石等）的溶解、迁移，硅酸盆相矿物（长石、2:1型粘土矿物等）残余、累积。酸不济物一土层或上层的演化，K、Si（长石、伊利石）不断淋失，而Al（伊利石、高岭石、三水铝石）、Fe（针铁矿、赤铁矿等）逐渐富集，体现出脱硅、富铝（铁）过程。石灰土与红色风化壳之间既存在共性，又有一定的差异性。红色风化壳与原生石灰土一样都具有过渡特征，但后者仅在剖面下部出现一定的过渡层位；原生石灰士的城化程度远低于红色风化壳，仅与后者底部土层相当；原生石灰土不具有红色风化壳之岩-土REE（超常）富集层。总体上，原生石灰土可以作为红色风化壳的前身。次生石灰土与红色风化壳在矿物组成、风化程度等各种地球化学指标等都十分接近（略低），显示与红色风化壳之间存在某种关联：由红色风化壳物质直接转变，或由酸不溶物已强烈风化的（白云岩）岩粉、碎裂岩风化形成。3、碳酸盐岩风化成土母岩差异性碳酸盐岩风化成土存在母岩差异性，石灰土母岩差异性较为明显，而红色风化壳的母岩差异性较弱，体现出红色风化壳的均一化特征。石灰土母岩差异性体现为：母岩为灰岩的石灰土剖面主量元素含量变化特征较为一致，而白云岩则具有不同的变化；灰岩石灰土Fe3＋、Al具有不同的富集、亏损特征，且具有富集层的补偿亏损层，而白云岩石灰上两组分都呈现无补偿层位的相同富集态势；灰岩石灰土剖面出现负Eu异常和具以Gd为中心的倒“V”型MREE稀土富集特征（母岩标准化），而白云岩石灰土无明显Eu异常和具L既E或HREE稀士．富集特征；灰岩和白云岩石灰土的微量元素富集、亏损特征也有所不同，前者从上到下逐渐富集，而后者无明显变化趋势。红色风化壳形成的基本过程、主量元素地球化学行为无明显的母岩相关性，没有如石灰土剖面灰岩和白云岩之间存在的差异性，显示出红土化作用的均一化过程；微量元素中受重矿物影响的元素与母岩类型有一定的关联，但大多数元素的亏损、富集等与具体剖面的微环境关系密切。4、碳酸盐岩红色风化壳发育程度的对比及意义多利指标对比显示所选红色风化壳的风化程度有一定的强弱差别：平坝剖面＞湖潮剖面＞天龙剖面、大兴剖面＞花溪剖面、新蒲剖面，但这种差异性不足以否定各剖面隶属于贵州山盆期广泛夷平面的基本推测。各剖面之间的微弱差异是红色风化壳形成时纬度分带和垂向分带的体现。低纬度的平坝、湖潮、天龙剖面经历的风化作用强于高纬度的新蒲、大兴剖面；高海拔的新蒲剖面风化程度低于海拔低的大兴剖面。5、红色风化壳次生石英裂变径迹测年红色风化壳次生石英裂变径迹方法测年尝试，得到一定的结果和认识：晶形相对较好的石英，是次生的，与母岩中碎屑及成岩阶段没有关联；各剖面上部与中、下部次生石英的诱发裂变径迹的密度有着明显的区别，可能暗示它们的形成环境不同；名一剖面石英的形成或退火年龄分布较为分散，1.2-25.2Ma，同一剖面的石英年龄也不均一，变化较大；从下到上，年龄值呈现出逐渐减小的规律性，与风化作用的正常序列相反。如果能确切其成因，次生石英裂变径迹年代学研究将是确定风化壳形成时代及揭示主要风化作用信，却钩有利武器。

龙溪软玉的矿物学研究

龙溪玉是除新疆软玉、台湾软玉之外的中国三大软玉之一。本文采取以宏观到微观再到亚微观逐步深入的工作方法，在地质产状、物质成分、物理性质、谱学特征、显微——亚显微组构等方面对龙溪玉进行了基础矿物学。矿物物理学和成因矿物学或岩石学的综合性研究。最后，提出了龙溪玉形成的过程机理和成因模式。龙溪玉是多相变质作用过程中热力场和应力场交相变化的动热变质作用的产物，反映了早期的变质结晶作用，构造期的变形作用及其后的恢复，重结晶作用和退变质作用的复杂结合。文中并对Cao－Mgo－Sio_2－H_2o－Co_2五元五相热力学多体系通过构筑拓扑相图的方法深入探讨含玉体透闪片岩在区域进变质作用过程中形成的温压条件，估讨为550－600℃。4－5干巴，而变形作用与退变质作用过程中的温温压条件则明显低于这个数值范围。

广西贺县龙水金矿床的同位素地球化学研究及成因探讨

广西贺县龙水金矿位于湘桂稳定区，桂粤交界山脉的北段，博白-茶陵深断裂的西侧，区内广泛发育加里东期到燕山期的花岗岩，出露的基底地层主要为震旦系到寒武系。本文主要研究龙水金矿II号矿化带。该带位于寒武系水口群清溪亚群和大宁花岗闪长岩体的接触带附近，围岩为寒武系的碳质板岩，矿脉为硫化物石英脉，主要有黄铁矿、方铅矿、闪锌矿和石英等矿物。金矿化与硫化物密切相关。主要的金矿物为银金矿，少许自然金。确定金矿床的成矿年龄一直是个比较刺手的问题。本文选择矿脉中信为是成矿期的石英作为Rb-Sr等时年龄测定的对象，是基于其纯净和其中的原生气液包体基本可代表成矿热液的特征。结果表明其Rb-Sr等时年龄为120.5Ma，并认为此年龄代表了成矿年龄。有石英Rb-Sr等时线的~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr初始比为0.732089, 与矿脉中碳酸相加矿物的Sr同位素比值（约为0.7337-0.7402）一起，表明Sr应是来自地壳的富Rb盐矿物的Sr源区。另外，为了与围岩的蚀变年龄对比，测定了近矿围岩的Rb、Sr同位素组成，结果形成两条等时线，年龄分别为245.9 Ma和173.6 Ma，表明成矿以前至少发生了两次地质事件，导致了Sr同位素的均一化。这两次地质事件分别与华南的东吴运动及燕山运动第一幕相对应。矿石Pb同位素的~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb、 ~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb 和~(208)Pb/~(204)Pb 分别在18.4-18.9、15.6-16.1和38.4-39.6的范围内，并在~(207)Pb/~(204)Pb vs ~(206)Pb/~(204)Pb坐标图上呈现出斜率为1左右的线性排布。只有个别数据点要以得出依据Doe模式的模式年龄，约为200 Ma。在Zart,am Pb构造模式中，矿石Pb同位素数据大部分位于上地壳Pb线以上，呈现出富放射性成因Pb的特征。为了解释异常Pb的成因，本文进行了定量计算。结果表明矿石Pb为古老的存留地壳Pb与少地幔源Pb的混合，即矿石Pb同位素经历了这样的演化过程：在39-29.8亿年间由地幔分异出的地壳 Pb，未参与壳幔循环作用，一直到燕山期，与少量幔源Pb混合，并加入成矿。混合μ值为9.85-10.22。矿石的地质情况及矿石Pb同位素的Δα-Δβ-Δγ示踪结果均支持这一结论。本文初次研究了脉石英中的U、Pb同位素组成。脉石英中Ｕ含量很低。Pb同位素组成基本可以划分为两组，一组为与方铅矿数据近似的普通Pb组成，另一组则较富放射性成因Pb，并向围岩的Pb同位素组成漂移，可能是随着热液的演化和大气降水的加入，受围岩Pb的影响所致。矿脉中硫化物样品的S同位素比值（加权平均为0.16‰）和碳酸盐矿物样品的C同位素比值（在-0.1～-4.1‰的范围内），表明其应为内生来源。根据脉石英的气液包体均一温度（180-250 ），计算与脉石英存在0同位素平衡的热液的同位素的同位素组成，结果为1.2～-4.8‰，表明有大气降水的参与。石英气液包体水溶液为弱碱性，其成分分析表明其中K_2O/Na_2和CaO/MgO（分别根据K~+/Na~+和Ca~(2+)/Mg~(2+)的换算）与围岩相差很大。另外，矿石中微量元素主要为Au、A2g、Cu、Pb、Zn、Co、Ni、Mo、Bi、Ga、As、Sb、和Hg，而围岩中微量元素则主要为Cu、Ni、Mn、V、Zr、Ti、Cr和Ba。因此，热液中成矿元素主要不是来自围岩。黄铁矿的Co/Ni、S/Se/的比值可以指示热液化的来源。龙水金矿矿脉中黄铁矿的Co/Ni > 1，S/Se < 15000，均在与岩浆作用有关的热液范围内。因此，热液活动应主要与岩浆岩有关。矿石、围岩和花岗闪长岩的稀土配分模式相似，均呈现向右倾斜的V字型，并且类似于太古代后沉积岩。结合Pb、Sr同位素的研究，推测花岗闪长岩的源岩主要为古老的地壳物质。概括起来，龙水金矿床为约120.5 Ma形成的中低温热液矿床；热液中成矿物质主要来自花岗闪长岩。由于围岩与矿床紧密的空间联系及围岩中的高Au含量，围岩可能提供了一部分Au及其他成矿物质。

Synthesis and catalytic reactivity of MCM-22/ZSM-35 composites for olefin aromatization

A series of MCM-22/ZSM-35 composites has been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by XRD, SEM, particle size distribution analysis, N-2 adsorption and NH3-TPD techniques. Pulse and continuous flow reactions were carried out to evaluate the catalytic performances of these composites in aromatization of olefins, respectively. It was found that MCM-22/ZSM-35 composites could be rapidly crystallized at 174 degrees C with an optimal gel composition of SiO2/Al2O3=25, Na2O/SiO2=0.11, HMI/SiO2=0.35, and H2O/SiO2=45 (molar ratio), of which the weight ratio of ZSM-35 zeolite in the composite relied on the crystallization time. The coexistence of MCM-22 and ZSM-35 in the composite (MCM-22/ZSM-35=45/55 wt/wt) was observed to exert a notable synergistic effect on the aromatization ability for butene conversion and FCC gasoline updating, possibly due to the intergrowth of some MCM-22 and ZSM-35 layers.

The role of a transcrustal shear zone in orogenic gold mineralization at the Aijanahalli Mine, Dharwar Craton, South India

The Ajjanahalli gold mine is spatially associated with a Late Archean craton-scale shear zone in the eastern Chitradurga greenstone belt of the Dharwar craton, India. Gold mineralization is hosted by an similar to100-m-wide antiform in a banded iron formation. Original magnetite and siderite are replaced by a peak metamorphic alteration assemblage of chlorite, stilpnomelane, minnesotaite, sericite, ankerite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, and gold at ca. 300degrees to 350degreesC. Elements enriched in the banded iron formation include Ca, Mg, C, S, An, As, Bi. Cu, Sb, Zn, Pb, Se, Ag, and Te, whereas in the wall rocks As, Cu, Zn, Bi, Ag, and An are only slightly enriched. Strontium correlates with CaO, MgO, CO2, and As, which indicates cogenetic formation of arsenopyrite and Mg-Ca carbonates. The greater extent of alteration in the Fe-rich banded iron formation layers than in the wall rock reflects the greater reactivity of the banded iron formation layers. The ore fluids, as interpreted from their isotopic composition (delta(18)O = 6.5-8.5parts per thousand; initial Sr-87/Sr-86 = 0.7068-0.7078), formed by metamorphic devolatilization of deeper levels of the Chitradurga greenstone belt. Arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, and pyrrhotite have delta(34)S values within a narrow range between 2.1 and 2.7 per mil, consistent with a sulfur source in Chitradurga greenstone belt lithologies. Based on spatial and temporal relationships between mineralization, local structure development, and sinistral strike-slip deformation in the shear zone at the eastern contact of the Chitradurga greenstone belt, we suggest that the Ajjanahalli gold mineralization formed by fluid infiltration into a low strain area within the first-order structure. The ore fluids were transported along this shear zone into relatively shallow crustal levels during lateral terrane accretion and a change from thrust to transcurrent tectonics. Based on this model of fluid flow, exploration should focus on similar low strain areas or potentially connected higher order splays of the first-order shear zone.

Contact metamorphism and emplacement of the western Adamello tonalite

The geodynamic forces acting in the Earth's interior manifest themselves in a variety of ways. Volcanoes are amongst the most impressive examples in this respect, but like with an iceberg, they only represent the tip of a more extensive system hidden underground. This system consists of a source region where melt forms and accumulates, feeder connections in which magma is transported towards the surface, and different reservoirs where it is stored before it eventually erupts to form a volcano. A magma represents a mixture of melt and crystals. The latter can be extracted from the source region, or form anywhere along the path towards their final crystallization place. They will retain information of the overall plumbing system. The host rocks of an intrusion, in contrast, provide information at the emplacement level. They record the effects of thermal and mechanical forces imposed by the magma. For a better understanding of the system, both parts - magmatic and metamorphic petrology - have to be integrated. I will demonstrate in my thesis that information from both is complementary. It is an iterative process, using constraints from one field to better constrain the other. Reading the history of the host rocks is not always straightforward. This is shown in chapter two, where a model for the formation of clustered garnets observed in the contact aureole is proposed. Fragments of garnets, older than the intrusive rocks are overgrown by garnet crystallizing due to the reheating during emplacement of the adjacent pluton. The formation of the clusters is therefore not a single event as generally assumed but the result of a two-stage process, namely the alteration of the old grains and the overgrowth and amalgamation of new garnet rims. This makes an important difference when applying petrological methods such as thermobarometry, geochronology or grain size distributions. The thermal conditions in the aureole are a strong function of the emplacement style of the pluton. therefore it is necessary to understand the pluton before drawing conclusions about its aureole. A study investigating the intrusive rocks by means of field, geochemical, geochronologi- cal and structural methods is presented in chapter three. This provided important information about the assembly of the intrusion, but also new insights on the nature of large, homogeneous plutons and the structure of the plumbing system in general. The incremental nature of the emplacement of the Western Adamello tonalité is documented, and the existence of an intermediate reservoir beneath homogeneous plutons is proposed. In chapter four it is demonstrated that information extracted from the host rock provides further constraints on the emplacement process of the intrusion. The temperatures obtain by combining field observations with phase petrology modeling are used together with thermal models to constrain the magmatic activity in the immediate intrusion. Instead of using the thermal models to control the petrology result, the inverse is done. The model parameters were changed until a match with the aureole temperatures was obtained. It is shown, that only a few combinations give a positive match and that temperature estimates from the aureole can constrain the frequency of ancient magmatic systems. In the fifth chapter, the Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility of intrusive rocks is compared to 3D tomography. The obtained signal is a function of the shape and distribution of ferromagnetic grains, and is often used to infer flow directions of magma. It turns out that the signal is dominated by the shape of the magnetic crystals, and where they form tight clusters, also by their distribution. This is in good agreement with the predictions made in the theoretical and experimental literature. In the sixth chapter arguments for partial melting of host rock carbonates are presented. While at first very surprising, this is to be expected when considering the prior results from the intrusive study and experiments from the literature. Partial melting is documented by compelling microstructures, geochemical and structural data. The necessary conditions are far from extreme and this process might be more frequent than previously thought. The carbonate melt is highly mobile and can move along grain boundaries, infiltrating other rocks and ultimately alter the existing mineral assemblage. Finally, a mineralogical curiosity is presented in chapter seven. The mineral assemblage magne§site and calcite is in apparent equilibrium. It is well known that these two carbonates are not stable together in the system Ca0-Mg0-Fe0-C02. Indeed, magnesite and calcite should react to dolomite during metamorphism. The presented explanation for this '"forbidden" assemblage is, that a calcite melt infiltrated the magnesite bearing rock along grain boundaries and caused the peculiar microstructure. This is supported by isotopie disequilibrium between calcite and magnesite. A further implication of partially molten carbonates is, that the host rock drastically looses its strength so that its physical properties may be comparable to the ones of the intrusive rocks. This contrasting behavior of the host rock may ease the emplacement of the intrusion. We see that the circle closes and the iterative process of better constraining the emplacement could start again. - La Terre est en perpétuel mouvement et les forces tectoniques associées à ces mouvements se manifestent sous différentes formes. Les volcans en sont l'un des exemples les plus impressionnants, mais comme les icebergs, les laves émises en surfaces ne représentent que la pointe d'un vaste système caché dans les profondeurs. Ce système est constitué d'une région source, région où la roche source fond et produit le magma ; ce magma peut s'accumuler dans cette région source ou être transporté à travers différents conduits dans des réservoirs où le magma est stocké. Ce magma peut cristalliser in situ et produire des roches plutoniques ou alors être émis en surface. Un magma représente un mélange entre un liquide et des cristaux. Ces cristaux peuvent être extraits de la source ou se former tout au long du chemin jusqu'à l'endroit final de cristallisation. L'étude de ces cristaux peut ainsi donner des informations sur l'ensemble du système magmatique. Au contraire, les roches encaissantes fournissent des informations sur le niveau d'emplacement de l'intrusion. En effet ces roches enregistrent les effets thermiques et mécaniques imposés par le magma. Pour une meilleure compréhension du système, les deux parties, magmatique et métamorphique, doivent être intégrées. Cette thèse a pour but de montrer que les informations issues de l'étude des roches magmatiques et des roches encaissantes sont complémentaires. C'est un processus itératif qui utilise les contraintes d'un domaine pour améliorer la compréhension de l'autre. Comprendre l'histoire des roches encaissantes n'est pas toujours aisé. Ceci est démontré dans le chapitre deux, où un modèle de formation des grenats observés sous forme d'agrégats dans l'auréole de contact est proposé. Des fragments de grenats plus vieux que les roches intru- sives montrent une zone de surcroissance générée par l'apport thermique produit par la mise en place du pluton adjacent. La formation des agrégats de grenats n'est donc pas le résultat d'un seul événement, comme on le décrit habituellement, mais d'un processus en deux phases, soit l'altération de vieux grains engendrant une fracturation de ces grenats, puis la formation de zone de surcroissance autour de ces différents fragments expliquant la texture en agrégats observée. Cette interprétation en deux phases est importante, car elle engendre des différences notables lorsque l'on applique des méthodes pétrologiques comme la thermobarométrie, la géochronologie ou encore lorsque l'on étudie la distribution relative de la taille des grains. Les conditions thermales dans l'auréole de contact dépendent fortement du mode d'emplacement de l'intrusion et c'est pourquoi il est nécessaire de d'abord comprendre le pluton avant de faire des conclusions sur son auréole de contact. Une étude de terrain des roches intrusives ainsi qu'une étude géochimique, géochronologique et structurale est présente dans le troisième chapitre. Cette étude apporte des informations importantes sur la formation de l'intrusion mais également de nouvelles connaissances sur la nature de grands plutons homogènes et la structure de système magmatique en général. L'emplacement incrémental est mis en évidence et l'existence d'un réservoir intermédiaire en-dessous des plutons homogènes est proposé. Le quatrième chapitre de cette thèse illustre comment utiliser l'information extraite des roches encaissantes pour expliquer la mise en place de l'intrusion. Les températures obtenues par la combinaison des observations de terrain et l'assemblage métamorphique sont utilisées avec des modèles thermiques pour contraindre l'activité magmatique au contact directe de cette auréole. Au lieu d'utiliser le modèle thermique pour vérifier le résultat pétrologique, une approche inverse a été choisie. Les paramètres du modèle ont été changés jusqu'à ce qu'on obtienne une correspondance avec les températures observées dans l'auréole de contact. Ceci montre qu'il y a peu de combinaison qui peuvent expliquer les températures et qu'on peut contraindre la fréquence de l'activité magmatique d'un ancien système magmatique de cette manière. Dans le cinquième chapitre, les processus contrôlant l'anisotropie de la susceptibilité magnétique des roches intrusives sont expliqués à l'aide d'images de la distribution des minéraux dans les roches obtenues par tomographie 3D. Le signal associé à l'anisotropie de la susceptibilité magnétique est une fonction de la forme et de la distribution des grains ferromagnétiques. Ce signal est fréquemment utilisé pour déterminer la direction de mouvement d'un magma. En accord avec d'autres études de la littérature, les résultats montrent que le signal est dominé par la forme des cristaux magnétiques, ainsi que par la distribution des agglomérats de ces minéraux dans la roche. Dans le sixième chapitre, une étude associée à la fusion partielle de carbonates dans les roches encaissantes est présentée. Si la présence de liquides carbonatés dans les auréoles de contact a été proposée sur la base d'expériences de laboratoire, notre étude démontre clairement leur existence dans la nature. La fusion partielle est documentée par des microstructures caractéristiques pour la présence de liquides ainsi que par des données géochimiques et structurales. Les conditions nécessaires sont loin d'être extrêmes et ce processus pourrait être plus fréquent qu'attendu. Les liquides carbonatés sont très mobiles et peuvent circuler le long des limites de grain avant d'infiltrer d'autres roches en produisant une modification de leurs assemblages minéralogiques. Finalement, une curiosité minéralogique est présentée dans le chapitre sept. L'assemblage de minéraux de magnésite et de calcite en équilibre apparent est observé. Il est bien connu que ces deux carbonates ne sont pas stables ensemble dans le système CaO-MgO-FeO-CO.,. En effet, la magnésite et la calcite devraient réagir et produire de la dolomite pendant le métamorphisme. L'explication présentée pour cet assemblage à priori « interdit » est que un liquide carbonaté provenant des roches adjacentes infiltre cette roche et est responsable pour cette microstructure. Une autre implication associée à la présence de carbonates fondus est que la roche encaissante montre une diminution drastique de sa résistance et que les propriétés physiques de cette roche deviennent comparables à celles de la roche intrusive. Cette modification des propriétés rhéologiques des roches encaissantes peut faciliter la mise en place des roches intrusives. Ces différentes études démontrent bien le processus itératif utilisé et l'intérêt d'étudier aussi bien les roches intrusives que les roches encaissantes pour la compréhension des mécanismes de mise en place des magmas au sein de la croûte terrestre.

Otimização e análise mecânica de pastas geopoliméricas para uso em poços sujeitos à injeção cíclica de vapor

Oil wells subjected to cyclic steam injection present important challenges for the development of well cementing systems, mainly due to tensile stresses caused by thermal gradients during its useful life. Cement sheath failures in wells using conventional high compressive strength systems lead to the use of cement systems that are more flexible and/or ductile, with emphasis on Portland cement systems with latex addition. Recent research efforts have presented geopolymeric systems as alternatives. These cementing systems are based on alkaline activation of amorphous aluminosilicates such as metakaolin or fly ash and display advantageous properties such as high compressive strength, fast setting and thermal stability. Basic geopolymeric formulations can be found in the literature, which meet basic oil industry specifications such as rheology, compressive strength and thickening time. In this work, new geopolymeric formulations were developed, based on metakaolin, potassium silicate, potassium hydroxide, silica fume and mineral fiber, using the state of the art in chemical composition, mixture modeling and additivation to optimize the most relevant properties for oil well cementing. Starting from molar ratios considered ideal in the literature (SiO2/Al2O3 = 3.8 e K2O/Al2O3 = 1.0), a study of dry mixtures was performed,based on the compressive packing model, resulting in an optimal volume of 6% for the added solid material. This material (silica fume and mineral fiber) works both as an additional silica source (in the case of silica fume) and as mechanical reinforcement, especially in the case of mineral fiber, which incremented the tensile strength. The first triaxial mechanical study of this class of materials was performed. For comparison, a mechanical study of conventional latex-based cementing systems was also carried out. Regardless of differences in the failure mode (brittle for geopolymers, ductile for latex-based systems), the superior uniaxial compressive strength (37 MPa for the geopolymeric slurry P5 versus 18 MPa for the conventional slurry P2), similar triaxial behavior (friction angle 21° for P5 and P2) and lower stifness (in the elastic region 5.1 GPa for P5 versus 6.8 GPa for P2) of the geopolymeric systems allowed them to withstand a similar amount of mechanical energy (155 kJ/m3 for P5 versus 208 kJ/m3 for P2), noting that geopolymers work in the elastic regime, without the microcracking present in the case of latex-based systems. Therefore, the geopolymers studied on this work must be designed for application in the elastic region to avoid brittle failure. Finally, the tensile strength of geopolymers is originally poor (1.3 MPa for the geopolymeric slurry P3) due to its brittle structure. However, after additivation with mineral fiber, the tensile strength became equivalent to that of latex-based systems (2.3 MPa for P5 and 2.1 MPa for P2). The technical viability of conventional and proposed formulations was evaluated for the whole well life, including stresses due to cyclic steam injection. This analysis was performed using finite element-based simulation software. It was verified that conventional slurries are viable up to 204ºF (400ºC) and geopolymeric slurries are viable above 500ºF (260ºC)

Relações solo-paisagem em uma litosseqüência arenito-basalto na região de Pereira Barreto, SP

Os objetivos deste trabalho foram estudar as relações solo-paisagem em uma litosseqüência de transição arenito-basalto e verificar a similaridade dos limites de superfícies geomórficas mapeados no campo com os limites mapeados a partir de técnicas geoestatísticas. Foi realizado o mapeamento de uma área de 530 ha, utilizando-se equipamento de GPS, e em seguida elaborou-se o Modelo de Elevação Digital, que possibilitou o estabelecimento da transeção de 2.100 m a partir do topo. Ao longo da transeção, o terreno foi estaqueado a intervalos regulares de 50 m, nos quais foram realizadas medidas da altitude para confecção do perfil altimétrico. As superfícies geomórficas foram identificadas e delimitadas conforme critérios topográficos e estratigráficos, com base em intensas investigações de campo. Coletaram-se amostras de solo em pontos laterais em 67 locais, nas superfícies geomórficas identificadas, nas profundidades de 0,0-0,25 m e 0,80-1,00 m. Além disso, foram abertas trincheiras nos segmentos de vertente inseridos nas superfícies geomórficas mapeadas. As amostras coletadas foram analisadas quanto a densidade do solo, textura, Ca2+, K+, Mg2+, SB, CTC, V, pH (água e KCl), SiO2, Al2O3 e Fe2O3 (ataque por H2SO4), óxidos de Fe livres extraído com ditionito-citrato-bicarbonato e ferro mal cristalizado extraídos com oxalato de amônio. A fração argila desferrificada foi analisada por difração de raios X. A compartimentação da paisagem em superfícies geomórficas e a identificação do material de origem mostraram-se bastante eficientes para entendimento da variação dos atributos do solo. A análise individual desses atributos por meio de estatística univariada auxiliou na discriminação das três superfícies geomórficas. O uso de técnicas de geoestatística permitiu a confirmação de que mesmo os atributos do solo apresentaram limites próximos aos das superfícies geomórficas.

Conversão catalítica de clorometano em hidrocarbonetos

Amorphous silica-alumina and modified by incipient impregnation of iron, nickel, zinc and chromium were synthetized in oxide and metal state and evaluated as catalysts for the chloromethane conversion reaction. With known techniques their textural properties were determined and dynamics techniques in programmed temperature were used to find the acid properties of the materials. A thermodynamic model was used to determine the adsorption and desorption capacity of chloromethane. Two types of reactions were studied. Firstly the chloromethane was catalytically converted to hydrocarbons (T = 300 450 oC e m = 300 mg) in a fixed bed reactor with controlled pressure and flow. Secondly the deactivation of the unmodified support was studied (at 300 °C and m=250 g) in a micro-adsorver provided of gravimetric monitoring. The metal content (2,5%) and the chloromethane percent of the reagent mixture (10% chloromethane in nitrogen) were fixed for all the tests. From the results the chloromethane conversion and selectivity of the gaseous products (H2, CH4, C3 and C4) were determined as well as the energy of desorption (75,2 KJ/mol for Ni/Al2O3-SiO2 to 684 KJ/mol for the Zn/Al2O3-SiO2 catalyst) considering the desorption rate as a temperature function. The presence of a metal on the support showed to have an important significance in the chloromethane condensation. The oxide class catalyst presented a better performance toward the production of hydrocarbons. Especial mention to the ZnO/Al2O3-SiO2 that, in a gas phase basis, produced C3 83 % max. and C4 63% max., respectively, in the temperature of 450 oC and 20 hours on stream. Hydrogen was produced exclusively in the FeO/Al2O3-SiO2 catalysts (15 % max., T = 550 oC and 5,6 h on stream) and Ni/SiO2-Al2O3 (75 % max., T = 400 oC and 21,6 h on stream). All the catalysts produced methane (10 à 92 %), except for Ni/Al2O3-SiO2 and CrO/Al2O3-SiO2. In the deactivation study two models were proposed: The parallel model, where the product production competes with coke formation; and the sequential model, where the coke formation competes with the product desorption dessorption step. With the mass balance equations and the mechanism proposed six parameters were determined. Two kinetic parameters: the hydrocarbon formation constant, 8,46 10-4 min-1, the coke formation, 1,46 10-1 min-1; three thermodynamic constants (the global, 0,003, the chloromethane adsorption 0,417 bar-1, the hydrocarbon adsorption 2,266 bar-1), and the activity exponent of the coke formation (1,516). The model was reasonable well fitted and presented a satisfactory behavior in relation with the proposed mechanism

Relações solo-paisagem em topossequência de origem basáltica

Variações nos atributos do solo dependem da posição do solo na paisagem e processos de drenagem, erosão e deposição. Este estudo objetivou avaliar os atributos físicos e químicos do solo, em uma topossequência de origem basáltica, na região de Batatais (SP). A área possui relevo aplanado e altitude oscilando entre 740 m e 610 m, em região dominada por basaltos. Foi estabelecido caminhamento de 3.000 m, a partir do espigão da vertente, no seu declive mais suave. As superfícies geomórficas foram identificadas e delimitadas conforme critérios topográficos e estratigráficos, com base em intensas investigações detalhadas de campo. Foram coletadas amostras laterais aos perfis modais representativos das diversas superfícies geomórficas (S.G.) da topossequência (S.G. I = topo; S.G. II = meia encosta e sopé de transporte; S.G. III = ombro e sopé de deposição), totalizando 142 amostras. Além disto, foram abertas trincheiras, nos segmentos de vertente inseridos nas superfícies geomórficas mapeadas. As amostras coletadas foram analisadas quanto à densidade do solo, textura, bases trocáveis (Ca2+, K+ e Mg2+), soma de bases, capacidade de troca catiônica, saturação por bases, pH (água e KCl), SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3 (ataque por H2SO4), óxidos de Fe livres extraídos com ditionito-citrato-bicarbonato e Fe mal cristalizado extraído com oxalato de amônio. Os resultados revelaram que os solos oriundos de basalto apresentaram atributos físicos e químicos com comportamento dependente das formas do relevo. Com o uso de técnicas estatísticas multivariadas, foi possível distinguir três diferentes ambientes, que equivalem às três superfícies geomórficas.

Modelos de paisagem e susceptibilidade magnética na identificação e caracterização do solo

O conhecimento detalhado do solo e de seus atributos, ao longo da paisagem, é uma demanda permanente dos sistemas urbanos e agroindustriais, para o planejamento sustentável de uso e ocupação. O presente trabalho objetivou estudar o potencial de modelos de paisagem e susceptibilidade magnética na identificação e caracterização de latossolos, em Guariba (SP). Foram coletadas 514 amostras de solo, em 110,0 ha, às profundidades de 0,0-0,20 m e 0,60-0,80 m. Foram identificados diferentes compartimentos de paisagem, com base no modelo de superfície geomórfica e segmento de vertente. em cada compartimento de paisagem, foram abertas trincheiras, para classificação do solo. As amostras foram analisadas quanto à granulometria e atributos químicos, pH (água, CaCl2 e KCl), matéria orgânica, P extraível, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ e H+ + Al3+. Também foram determinados os teores de SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3 e óxidos de Fe livres (Fe d) e pouco cristalizados (Fe o), nas amostras das trincheiras, além da susceptibilidade magnética (SM). Solos taxonomicamente iguais, porém em diferentes compartimentos da paisagem, apresentaram valores distintos, para os atributos estudados, indicando que os modelos de paisagem e a susceptibilidade magnética podem ser viáveis, como técnica de campo, para auxiliar no detalhamento da variação dos atributos do solo. A susceptibilidade magnética demonstrou ter potencial para delimitação das superfícies geomórficas mapeadas no campo, o que indica o seu potencial de uso, na identificação e caracterização de áreas mais homogêneas.

Utilização de rejeito de caulim da Amazônia na síntese da zeólita A

Zeólita A e hidroxisodalita foram sintetizadas a partir de um rejeito industrial do processo de beneficiamento de caulim para papel, de indústrias da região amazônica. Esse rejeito é composto essencialmente por caulinita e possui razão SiO2/Al2O3 igual à requerida para esses dois tipos de zeólitas. Dessa maneira, o processo de síntese passou por duas etapas: primeiramente o caulim foi submetido ao tratamento térmico, através de calcinação a 700 °C por 2 h, para transformação de caulinita em metacaulinita. A metacaulinita obtida reagiu com NaOH em solução, em condições hidrotermais, através de autoclavagem estática, nas temperaturas de 80, 110 e 150 °C por 24 h. Os materiais de partida foram identificados e caracterizados por difração de raios X (DRX) e microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV) e os produtos sintetizados, por meio de DRX, MEV, análises térmica diferencial e termogravimétrica, e espectroscopia de infravermelho. No processo realizado a 150 ºC foi obtida uma mistura de zeólita A e hidroxisodalita. A 110 ºC houve a formação de zeólita A. Contudo, na menor temperatura de síntese (80 °C) não houve formação de material cristalino para as condições do processo estabelecidas.
